Something very positive that this blog does for me is make me focus on my own growth, every day. To look for lessons, to care about how I’m developing as a person, and to observe my surroundings.
Life doesn’t move around you. You are a part of that movement. You’re not a rock in a river – you are the river.
We so easily fall into patterns where we’re giving something of ourselves to someone else, only to take what we get in exchange and give that to someone else, in exchange for something we give to someone else, and so on ad nauseum. We forget to bring some of that in. We make ourselves the centers of hurricanes but somehow separate from our own lives.
Move with your life. If you don’t like the direction, change it. But always move.
